Ben Schwartz: ESPN's Conversations with Ben Schwartz Playlist

Ben was a staff writer for the third season of Adult Swim's Robot Chicken as well as a freelance writer for the Late Show with David Letterman and Saturday Night Live. He has a website devoted to the jokes that never made it to air - www.rejectedjokes.com. He wrote a book called Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals. He is also a regular sketch (Hot Sauce) and improv performer at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. Ben always feels weird when he has to write bios, so to take your mind off of what you just read, here is the plot outline of the 1986 smash hit Howard the Duck - A scientific experiment unknowingly brings extraterrestrial life forms to the Earth through a laser beam. First is the cigar smoking drake Howard from the duck's planet. A few kids try to keep him from the greedy scientists and help him back to his planet. But then a much less friendly being arrives through the beam.
